"Medusa" is a painting by the German Symbolist artist Franz von Stuck, created in 1892. This work is one of von Stuck's most renowned pieces and exemplifies his fascination with mythological subjects, particularly those that explore themes of beauty and horror. The painting depicts the head of Medusa, a figure from Greek mythology known for her hair of living, venomous snakes and her ability to turn onlookers to stone with her gaze.

In "Medusa," von Stuck captures the moment of horror and fascination associated with the mythological character. The painting is characterized by its dark palette and the dramatic contrast between light and shadow, which serves to enhance the sinister and mesmerizing quality of Medusa's visage. Von Stuck's portrayal diverges from classical representations by focusing on the psychological intensity and the sensual aspects of the figure, rather than merely her monstrous attributes.

Franz von Stuck's work is often associated with Symbolism, a movement that sought to express the more emotional and mystical aspects of the human psyche, as opposed to the realism and naturalism that dominated the art of the 19th century. "Medusa" is a prime example of this style, as it delves into the depths of fear, allure, and the unconscious mind.

The painting is part of the collection of the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich, Germany, where it continues to be an object of study and admiration for its artistic and psychological depth. As an iconic piece of Symbolist art, "Medusa" has been the subject of scholarly analysis and has influenced subsequent generations of artists who are drawn to the interplay of beauty and terror.
